Great China Airlines (Chinese: 大華航空) was a Taiwanese-based airline founded in 1966, operating mainly in the general aviation business, such as helicopter pesticide spraying, resupply, or charter flights.[1][2][3] It was suspended and changed owners, when in 1987 Taiwan started its open skies policy.[3] In April 1994, another carrier called EVA Air acquired 24% of Great China Airlines.[4] It would later be merged with Taiwan Airways into Uni Air.
On March 23, 1998, Great China Airlines flight 9565 was involved in an attempted hijacking. No one was killed.[6]
